Requirements for obtaining certification
Certification is achieved by fulfilling the following two requirements:
-
Compliance status of “Partially compliant” or “Fully compliant”
The website must have obtained a compliance status of “Partially compliant” or “Fully compliant” in accordance with the “Methodology for in-depth monitoring for websites UNE-EN 301549:2022” of May 2022 approved by the Web Accessibility Observatory of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation.
The methodology defines the compliance status of the website based on compliance with each accessibility requirement at the website level. The terms of compliance are defined as follows:
- Fully compliant: all website-level requirements other than “Not Applicable” are assessed as “Compliant”. Therefore, there is no accessibility requirement assessed as “Not Compliant”. No. of “Non-compliant” Requirements = 0.
- Partially compliant: the number of website-level accessibility requirements assessed as “Compliant” is greater than the number of those assessed as “Non-compliant”. No. of “Compliant” Requirements > No. of “Non-compliant” Requirements.
In addition, the methodology defines compliance by website-level accessibility requirement as follows:
- Compliant: at least 90% of the pages for this requirement have been assessed as “Pass”, except for the pages where the requirement is not applicable.
- Non-compliant: less than 90% of the pages for this requirement have been assessed as “Pass”, except for the pages where the requirement is not applicable.
- Not applicable: none of the pages for this requirement could be assessed because the necessary features to perform the required checks do not exist.
-
Score higher than 6 points on the TOTHOMweb Accessibility Score
The website must achieve 6 points or more on the TOTHOMweb Accessibility Score indicator.
The TOTHOMweb Accessibility Score is a proprietary indicator created by TOTHOMweb that awards a score based on the level of compliance of the website out of a maximum score of 10 points.
The score is obtained from the number of criteria that have obtained a "Pass" and "Fail" rating. The score represents the proportion of criteria passed out of the total criteria that have been evaluated for the website ("Pass" criteria plus "Fail" criteria). Criteria that have been found not to be applicable have no impact on the score.
The score obtained in this indicator determines the level of the seal.
Conditions of certification
The certification is awarded under the following conditions:
- The certification is valid for 3 years from its issue, with annual reviews to ensure the continuity of the level of accessibility. After 3 years, a renewal must be requested.
- The Seal must be linked to the corresponding page on the TOTHOMweb website to remain valid.
- The certified entity undertakes to maintain the accessibility of the website and to notify TOTHOMweb of any major structural or content changes.
- TOTHOMweb reserves the right to withdraw the Seal at any time if a report shows that the required level of accessibility is no longer maintained.
- TOTHOMweb cannot guarantee that all pages on the website for which this certification is issued have the same level of accessibility, given that the accessibility audits on which this certification is based are carried out on a sample of pages containing different elements and content.
